We we tried to tell you about Power Slap
I’m truly shocked to hear that the mega-smash hit Power Slap: Road to the Title on TBS got canceled after just eight episodes, according to MMA Fighting.

LeBron’s rise from poverty to NBA all-time leading scorer is the real story
A lot of children were born in 1984. I know almost none of them, and the same goes for anyone reading this story.
